Funicolare dei Bottini, Funicular transportation in Celle Ligure, Italy.

The Funicolare dei Bottini connects different elevations in Celle Ligure through an inclined elevator system that spans 45 meters in height difference.

Originally constructed in 1919 as a private initiative, the funicular operated until 1935 and was later reconstructed, with the new system inaugurated in July 2016.

The funicular maintains its status as a local reference point, connecting the main town area with the Bottini plateau at 60 meters above sea level.

The modern funicular cabin accommodates 13 passengers per trip and operates free of charge, making it accessible to residents and visitors throughout the year.

The original structure included a service staircase with 210 steps, while the lower station featured a wooden chalet design in via Cassisi.
